Book Review: Building a Second Brain by Tiago Forte
"Building a Second Brain" by Tiago Forte offers a solution to the problem of forgetting important information by creating an organized external system to capture ideas, notes, and other information. The book focuses on developing a "second brain" outside of your own mind to store valuable information, reducing the burden on your memory and acting as a creativity sparking system. The author draws inspiration from the old idea of "commonplace books" and focuses on two main frameworks: CODE for capturing information and PARA for organizing it. The book provides a thorough guidebook for knowledge management and increasing productivity, with plenty of examples and encouragement for experimenting to figure out your ideal workflows and tools.
